I recently downloaded the same text from Barns and Noble to my Nook. I have never been more disappointed in my life. They presented to book as being Digitally Scanned by the Internet Archives. So many of the words were butchered by other characters than letters. Thank you for using a reliable technique otherwise this information might have been lost. The book is worth the effort to explain yet one part of our history.
